Default Ticking sound coming from motor

Now that the car is out this summer its just making all kinds of weird noises. It sounds like i'm getting a clicking/ticking sound coming from the engine. The only way to describe it is like a valvestick sound.

You didn't run it for a long time, right? How long have run the car after starting it? What weight of motor oil do you have in the car?

Isn't it common to run into problems with the lifters taking time to pump up with oil when there are long periods of the car not being run?
